Greetings,

As a Board Member, Past President/Chair, or special guest of CFA Society Chicago, we hope you are planning to attend CFA Society Chicago's 36th Annual Dinner on October 26 at the Aon Ballroom at Navy Pier. In addition to remarks from our keynote speaker, Ian Bremmer, we will honor this year's Hortense Friedman, CFA, Award for Excellence Recipients Gautam Dhingra, Ph.D., CFA. We will also honor and welcome to our society those investment professionals who have recently been awarded their Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation.

CFA Society Chicago will host a private VIP reception from 4:30 p.m.–5:30 p.m. The 36th Annual Dinner will begin following the cocktail reception and will conclude by 9:00 PM. If you will be a guest of an Annual Dinner sponsor, please note, you will be seated with your sponsoring/inviting table, unless other arrangements have been requested through staff. For those who have purchased an individual ticket to attend the dinner, we will seat you at one of our reserved tables toward the front of the room as we have in past years. 

If you are planning to attend the dinner and would like to join us at 4:30 p.m. for the private VIP reception, please RSVP prior to October 20, 2023, to Kathleen Hurley at [email protected] or 262-352-7480. We sincerely hope you will join us at the private VIP reception. Additional details regarding the dinner can be found below.
